Obsessive By Nature

Bria and Jenna always have interesting conversations whenever they get together, so they turned them into a podcast! Fronted by niche online micro-celebrity comic artist, Sabrina "Bria" Symington (Life of Bria, First Year Out, Starfist Gemini), with original music by co-host, Jenna, Obsessive By Nature is a celebration of the authentic self and the pursuit of meaning and beauty in a world that pushes us to conform. Listen to two neurodivergent queer artists unabashedly gush about art, science, history, or whatever else they are currently hyper-fixated on this week.
